SAPPHIRE HUNTING.
Valuable Prizes Secured in a Remote an,
Secluded Region of Siam.

Valuable Prizes Secured in Remote and
Secluded Region of Siam.
Some time ago 4 native hunter in
Siam found sapphires in a remote and
secluded district. Some men who were
let into the secret followed him into
the mines AMI brought back 10 Rangoon
and Calcutta a number of very valu a.
BILE stones. A rush ensued from British
Burmah, thousands of adventures
fiocking to the mines. some to find sud-
den fortune, but more to lose their lives
from privation and jungle fever. The
mines are located in the provinces of
Batta mbong and Chautaboon. In his
commercial report the British Consul
at Bankok says that the miners are
very careful to conceal their gems
while in Siam. Being anxious to show
some of the gems to the English Adj
miral the Consul called for specimens
from some miners who had Just re-
turned from the diggings. One miner,
poorly clad and misunderstanding
fellow. produced few small stones,
and after a great deal of coaxing was
induced, with many precautions, to
give private view of his great prize,
which was large sapphire in the
rough, valued at $4,000. He would
probably not have shown the stone at
all had he not been on the point of
leaving in a steamer Owing to the
secrecy thus observed by the possess
ors of valuable gems it is impossible to
give any estimate of the total value of
the stones found. but that individuals
have made large profits is certain. One
man dug out a stone which he offered
for sale at Chautaboon for $500, but
did not find a purchaser He went to
Rangoon, where he was offered 81, 500.
but. having awakened to the value of
the stone, he declined to sell, and took
it to Calcutta, where he eventually OBJ
tanned $4,000 for it. Now, however,
there are many experienced gem
merchants established in the neighbour
hood of the mines, and something like
the real value of the stone can be OBJ
tanned by the miners on the spot. The
largest sapphire hitherto found so far
as the Consul knows weighed $40 carats
in the rough, and when cut turned out
Ill carats of the finest water. The
ruby, onyx. and jade are found in the
district, but the quality of none of
them is such as 10 make them very val
liable. NeCs.

REMOVING THE HORNS.
How to Perform the Operation of Di
hOrning Young Calves.

How to Perform the Operation of Dis
horning Young Calves.
The operation of dishorning a calf is
so easily performed that one feels al
most ashamed to describe it for publ
cation. In the genus hos the horn
proper is hollow appendage of the
skin. In the very young calf this APP
pendage is merely the matrix of the
future horn. At the age of ten or
fifteen days this matrix is small, hair
less, movable prominence. This matriX,
together with small band of true
hairy skin, one-siXth of an inch wide,
can be removed by one sweep of
strong. sharp pocket-knife, and for
ever after the animal will be hornless.
Throw the calf on its side, let an as
sistant press the side of the head to the
earth. Let the operator now grasp the
matrix between the thumb and two
fingers of the left hand. place the knife
one-eighth of an inch outside the
naked matrix and with firm,
steady pressure, cut through to the
opposite side. the knife passing be-
tween the base of the matrix and the
skull, so that a rim of hairy skin one
eight of an inch wide remains attached
to the base of the matrix now ampu-
tated and held in the left hand. Turn
the calf on the other side and in like
manner remove the other matrix. This
simple operation causes very little pain
the loss of only one ounce of blood,
and soreness for only day or two; the
calf is not injured or stYaned, does not
lose its appetite, Did k1se wounds heal
more quickly thar thcee caused by
casirating. The writer first performed
this operation in the spring of 1868.
and has performed it annually ever
since His observations are that the
dehorned cattle mature earlier. grow
larger and never iiSure each other.
He is of the opinion that more horn
less cattle may be shipped in car. AS
to the plan working, the writer says it
does and that he practices it all the
time. He therefore, ought to know. -

a Method of Treatment Recommended fc
Suffering Children.

Method of Treatment Recommended for
Suffering Children.
First-Apply over the child's abdo.
men piece of towel wrung out of cool
water and keep it covered with piece
Of oiled silk or gum Cloth, large enough
to completely exclude the air from the
wet cloth. and keep it in place by
means @: a bandage. Change this wet
cloth every one. two or three hours,
according to the severity of the case,
wrlnglng it out of cool water and keep
ing it clean. This will rapidly abate
the abdominal Inflammation, lower tho
general temperature or fever, diminish
the diarrh9a and relieve head symp-
toms. This water poultice should be
continued persistently for days or even
weeks, till convalscence is thoroughly
established. but when improvement is
fairly begun the wet cloth need not be
changed oftener than once in three
to six hours. Its use will in most cas- es
bring out IN Eruption or rash. which
is OF salutary significance.
Second-If the child is emaciated it
should be rubbed all over once or twice
daily with little pure olive oil applied
by the bare hands of the mother or
nurse. Only SO much oil should be APP
Piled as will be absorbed by prolonged
and gentle rubbing. Indeed. the rub
bling should be very light, though con-
t1nued for fifteen or thirty minutes.
Only the best quality of genuine olive
oil should be used; the ordinary
''sweet oil' is unfit. If, however, the
child is scrofulous, or of consumptive
parentage, the best quality of genuine
cod-liver oil will be preferable.
Third-The child should be washed
with tepid salt water daily
Fourth-(As to die)-Nursing babes
over six months old should be weaned
and all milk omitted. The child
should be fed entirely on some one of
the prepared foods now sold by drug
gists generally, great care and cleanli-
ness are required in preparing the food.
1t should be given sparingly and not
too often, and the child, however
young. should be given small. frequent
doses of pure, cold water. For very
young babe half a teaspoonful at in
tervals of half minute for five min
utes every two or three hours, and for
an older child more may be given.
The practice of allowing child to
suck a wet rag is uncleanly and liable
to introduce germs of disease. Great
pains should be taken to obtain per-
fectly pure water for the child to drink
and use in preparing its food. A good
filter will render the hydrant water
pure, and when this is not available
pure spring water ice melted in clean
vessel will yield water nearly or quite
pure.-Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot.
